M Mindy for Government
Pilot program

Run a discovery pilot on one real requirement.

Pick a solicitation. We'll show you the qualified suppliers your current channels are missing — and measure the difference in competition. No procurement change required to start.

Who qualifies

Built for the office that owns a real requirement.

A public agency or buying office

Federal, state, or local — any office responsible for issuing solicitations and accountable for competition.

One requirement to focus on

An upcoming or recurring buy where you'd like to see more qualified small-business competition.

A goal you can measure against

Broader participation, more qualified bids, or reaching new entrants — something you can point to at the end.

What the pilot includes

A focused engagement on your requirement — not a platform rollout.

A supplier discovery scanMindy maps the real market for your requirement and surfaces qualified small businesses beyond your current vendor list — including firms new to the marketplace.
A qualified-supplier shortlistThe capable firms, with the award history and capability signals behind why they qualify — so your team can see the reasoning, not just a list.
A competition baselineWe establish what participation looks like today for this requirement, so the pilot's effect is measurable rather than anecdotal.
A read-out with your teamA working session on what we found, what it means for competition, and whether it's worth widening beyond one requirement.
Timeline

Weeks, not a procurement cycle.

Week 1

Scope

Pick the requirement, define the goal, and agree on how we'll measure competition.

Weeks 2–3

Discover

Mindy maps the market and builds the qualified-supplier shortlist for your requirement.

Week 4

Read-out

Review the suppliers found, the competition baseline, and the participation gap.

After

Decide

Decide whether to widen the approach across more requirements — or not. No obligation.

Success metrics

How we'll know it worked.

We agree on these up front, so the pilot is judged on outcomes your office already cares about — not on activity.

Qualified suppliers surfaced

Capable firms identified beyond your current channels for this requirement.

Challenge

The requirement, and why reaching qualified small businesses for it was hard.

Solution

What Mindy's discovery scan surfaced, and how the office used it.

Metrics

The measured change in qualified participation against the baseline.

What transferred to other requirements — and what didn't.

FAQ

The questions procurement teams ask first.

Does this change how we run procurement? +

No. The pilot sits alongside your existing process. Mindy helps qualified suppliers discover a requirement you're already running — it doesn't change your solicitation, evaluation, or award rules.

Are you posting our solicitation somewhere new? +

The pilot is about discovery, not another posting board. We identify qualified suppliers for your requirement and help the right firms find the opportunity you've published through your normal channels.

Where does the supplier data come from? +

Public federal award history, entity registration, and capability signals — the same public record procurement teams already rely on, read at a scale and specificity a manual search can't match.

What does the pilot cost? +

Pilot scope and terms are set per engagement based on the requirement. Start a conversation and we'll size it to your goal — there's no platform commitment to run one.

What do you need from us to start? +

One requirement, a point of contact, and a goal to measure against. We handle the discovery work and bring the read-out to you.
